Anna’s task is to prepare Mersham for the arrival of Rupert Frayne, the Earl of Westerholme, who is returning from the war-Rupert had promised his older brother (who had died in the war) that he would try to save the family home. When Anna begins working at Mersham, the downstairs staff immediately realizes that Anna must be of noble birth, but since Anna is such a hard worker and a very sweet girl, they allow her to stay and become friends with her. However, Anna conceals her position as a housemaid from her mother, brother and cousin, instead telling them that she is staying there as a guest. After reading a manual on how to be a housemaid, Anna takes a position as a housemaid at Mersham, the home of the Earl of Westerholme. Anna leaves Russia with her governess, Pinny, and decides that she must work since her family’s fortune seems to have been lost. Anna Grazinsky is a Russian countess who must flee to England after World War I when the Bolsheviks take over.
